Wedding Dresses for Petite Brides

Wedding Dresses for Petite Brides

Brides come in many shapes and sizes, just like the varying shapes and styles of wedding dresses. It can be difficult to know what may suit you if you're a bride of a smaller stature when the media and Internet is full of tall towering brides. Wedding gowns that look utterly stunning in the bridal magazines and on the mannequins in the bridal boutique often look unflattering on. This is because many wedding dresses are designed for tall westerners or models. 

Ladies under 5ft 4in can feel totally overwhelmed by the reams of fabric that a lot of bridal wear has and feel swamped, as if the dress is wearing them, rather them wearing the dress. As a petite bride that is searching for your dream wedding gown we hope to ease your stress and worry of tracking down the one. Here we have gathered some tips to guide you in your adventure.

The perfect styles of wedding dress that would be most flattering on your body shape height include empire line wedding dress. It not only enhances your bust, creating an illusion of it appearing larger, the shape and length of the skirt will make you feel and look taller. This is because it has no horizontal line. Choosing a column wedding dress is the perfect choice to give the appearance of added height.
